You Can't Take Love For Granted — Graham Parker

pre> Intro am g (twice)

Verse

Dm am g am Took her to a party and danced with the host Took her to a restaurant and treat her like a ghost Took her to a movie and looked at another screen Paid for entertainment she'd already seen

Bridge

Bm g d a I get so hungry, i'm eating my heart out Bm g d a Oooh i felt it go empty i'm wondering what i can be thinking about

Chorus

Dm am g am But you can't take love for granted, underneath another skin Dm am g am Can't take love for granted, up behind another grin

Demonstrated passion in a grip hard to shake Took up every fashion till everything went fake Pulled a coat over her shoulder, cracked a joke over and over Watch the rain turn the night colder, stared into the headlight beam

Bridge

I get so wired i'm making all the wrong connections And i get so tired i'm picking up bad affections

Repeat chorus 1

Chorus

Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted, Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted,

Instrumental section on bridge chords, then intro repeat

Watch the swans out on the lake, circle circle circle (circle circle) Talk and talk and talk around it (circle circle)

Repeat chorus 1 then chorus 2 then chorus 1 twice (fade) /pre>
